About this Workshop

In this presentation participants will be introduced to and learn the history of one college’s mission to create an inclusive support program for social class minority groups (first-generation, low income, and working class) to aid in academic, social, and/or cultural adjustment to campus life.

Participants will have the opportunity to engage with and learn how to implement a community art project that will encourage cross-class dialogues and allow students to share their stories around class, wealth, privilege, wealth inequality, and classism.
